    "content": "We had an engagement with KNBS together with the State Department for National Planning. During the Budget for the last two financial years we provided enough resources to ensure that census is carried out. As all of us know, we had various challenges which arose during the 2009 Census. To avoid that, we provided enough resources to ensure they prepare everything on time. The Leader of the Majority Party has spoken a lot about the various details of the Bill but in summary, I want to say that this Bill is actually aimed at ensuring that the data obtained from the census process is as accurate as possible. Various terms like “official statistics”, “professional independence” and the issues of sampling frames are defined. The Bill also expands the scope of the functions of the KNBS. It also sets out the principles to be observed in collection of data by the bureau. In addition, the Bill empowers the Cabinet Secretary to extend the period within which the national census may be conducted if need be in order to ensure that as many people as possible are captured during the census."
